    From a RS5 to a RS7....

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Wsup guys, not new to the forum but new to this "section" traded in my 2014 RS5 for a 2014 CPO RS7. This thing is a f'n beast!
    Few questions....
    1.Has anyone replaced the sub with a 10" instead of an 8" using the factory enclosure? (Bose System)
    2. Does all RS7 have the easy open hatch feature?
    Can't seem to make mine work.. Or can it be disabled?
    3. I've seen YouTube videos where the RS7 rev match downshifted or heel/toe downshift whatever you prefer... But mine doesn't do it... I miss that sound coming from an RS5.
    4. I have the round steering wheel.. Hate it. Anyone swapped to the flat bottom? If so what site? & and did any features not work afterwards?
    OK, I'll stop there for now.. Thanks in advance!

    Congrats, great choice.
    Flat bottom ftw, i've done it on all the RS cars that didn't come with it. Even have a spare one now ;) You just have to code it properly.

    Just search the subwoofer questions I know people have upgraded just not sure if they changed the enclosure

    Yes it is in the vag com thread

    If your car is in sports mode and you step on it or break hard it should Rev match

    Tons of people do swaps, there are a lot of threads I would contact Alex from euro price and he will be able to get you one.

    If you do not have a vag com I suggest finding some one in your area who has one

    To my understanding, mine didn't because it's a 14, & it has the lane assist, & comfort exit. So I was told.... But it's standard now starting in 16, so I was told also.

    The flat bottom wheel did not come with the rs7 till the face-lift and then it was only if you did not get the warm weather package

    I know a guy, one more question do you know if the airbag on my existing wheel will fit the flat bottom or do I have to purchase a flat bottom with the airbag already attached? Sorry for so many questions.....

    To my knowledge it is a direct swap, not sure if you go with a r8 wheel but the rs7 flatbottom it will work with out modifications
